calling aforementioned f_media_get_TYPE()).
Previously, if $probe_only was present and non-NULL, the TYPE functions
would check for $file and exit with an appropriate error status (success if
the file exists and readable, failure otherwise).
While this has been retained, a pair of globals has been introduced:
$PROBE_EXIST and $PROBE_SIZE (see `/usr/share/bsdconfig/media/common.subr')
The $PROBE_EXIST global can be used where you need the functionality of
simply testing for existence (previously the _only_ functionality).
Meanwhile, the new $PROBE_SIZE global can be used to cause the TYPE function
to print the size of the file (in bytes) on standard-out (or -1) if not
found or an error occurs. NOTE: If an error occurs, it is logged with the
dprintf function, which is visible with `-d' flag or debug=1.
In many cases, where you need to get the size of a file _and_ check for its
existence, you can use the return status of a $PROBE_SIZE call.

if it exists to determine if use_shadow is true (ON) or false (OFF).
The purpose of determining the value of use_shadow is to know how many lines
to subtract from the maximum height value in assuring that the backtitle is
not obscured.
The detriment of obscuring the backtitle is that it provides information
that is not easily obtained elsewhere. That is the command-line shortcut
used to access the current menu. As you navigate from one dialog to the
next, invariably transparently corssing module boundaries, the backtitle
represents the command-line argument used to get there. Obscuring this
information with a widget that is too-tall and/or too-wide would see that
data go unnoticed (leaving few other ways to get that information in the
same helpful context).
So despite the fact that this change reduces the standard maximum height for
all widgets, there is a trap-door to prevent this calculation. If you want
to utilize the full screen height on the terminal (remember, this adjustment
is not made for Xdialog(1)) you can set $NO_BACKTITLE to 1 (or any non-NULL
value for that matter) and this calculation will be skipped. You will be
able to draw a widget that partially obscures the backtitle if-necessary.

(packageReinstall) and UI access have been tested successfully with a
variation of different situations including:
+ Reinstall a package for which no other packages depend
+ Purposefully do thinks like reinstall a package that is not installed
+ Try to reinstall a package which other installed packages still depend
NOTE: There is no "force" used; if a package is required by other packages,
it will not be uninstalled (and therefore no reinstall is done).
(this is designed to allow new modules to be installed via ports/packages).
To prevent conflict with itself (sysutils/bsdconfig) as a port (which
installs its base modules to the above directory, it was long-ago decided
that so-called `base' modules would look different than now-defined `add-on'
modules. The structure of the contents for each is the same, but the naming
convention for the module directory must be different.
Base modules are named `[0-9][0-9][0-9].*' to allow SysV-style organization
while add-on modules must avoid this naming style and are simply listed in
alphabetical order by their module directory.
For example, a hypothetical port named `bsdconfig-jails' could install
/usr/local/libexec/bsdconfig/jails and provide `bsdconfig jails' as well as
a new menu entry in the main-menu.
Add-on modules are listed in the main-menu (when bsdconfig is executed with-
out arguments) below a separator after the last base-module.
In `bsdconfig -h' output, add-on modules are listed right alongside base
modules (sorted alphabetically in columnar fashion; left-to-right).
If a base module declares a keyword used by an add-on module, the base
module will always win when given `bsdconfig keyword' syntax.
Add-on modules should avoid declaring any keyword found in `script.subr' as
a reserved-word (`Resword') since bsdconfig also supports `bsdconfig resword'
as a fall-back if no keyword is found to be declared by any module.
difference between these two functions:
Usage: f_show_msg() $format_string [ $format_args ... ]
Usage: f_dialog_msgbox() $text [ $hline ]
The former lends itself well to displaying the $msg_* i18n text, prompts,
etc. While the latter is better for text you do not control (error strings
captured as a response from external commands) -- or if you have to control
the hline.
Both scripted access (packageDelete) and UI access have been tested
successfully with a variation of different situations including:
+ Uninstall a package which no other installed package depends
+ Uninstall multiple packages which no other installed packages depend
+ Uninstall multiple packages which depend on each other
+ Similar to above but when ordered removal requires tracing dependencies
+ Purposefully do things like uninstall a package that is not installed
+ Try to uninstall a package which other installed packages still depend
+ Try to uninstall multiple packages which other installed packages depend
+ And many more.

pending). Both scripted access (packageAdd) and UI access have been tested

allowed to ignore the probe_only argument of its member functions solely
because in the C language, the file accessor methods open and return a file
descriptor and reading of the data is optional. In shell, the file accessor
methods return data on stdout and that data should not be ignored (large
files could block execution).
So, we must adhere to the probe_only flags and in some cases (in the case of
FTP, for example) change the `get' strategy to simply test existence and
return an appropriate status.
This was required because the up-coming package management stuff makes heavy
use of the probe_only argument to try different package suffixes. Every
media access module must implement $probe_only for the `get' accessor.
because long URLs do not induce extra height despite wrapping by dialog(1).

fix the regression introduced by r251544; which was trying to make things

(need stronger coffee; very sorry for the churn)
With this revision, the "YES", "NO", and implied ESC options all work as-
expected. Choosing "YES" allows you to proceed and the password will be
disabled. Choosing "NO" will bring back around to enter a password for the
account. Pressing ESC will drop you out of either user or group input and
back to the usermgmt screen.
would like to disable password management for an account while adding either

1. You can hit ENTER to blast through all the questions and in the end, the
group or user is created with sensible defaults for all values.
2. You can press ESC during any prompt to cancel the operation as a whole.
This fix is shoring up an inconsistency in the latter (#2).

NOTE: SVN r249751 changed things so that these menus highlight the active
selection, so the idea that the default choice (now at top) "can be selected
immediately by hitting ENTER" is not possible unless the default choice is
the currently active setting (e.g., on first visit to the menu). However, it
is still warranted to have the default choice at the top of the menu.

dialog(1) API in dialog.subr responsible for retrieving menu-choice data

Add f_dialog_menuitem_store()/f_dialog_menuitem_fetch() for storing and
retrieving the menuitem (not the tag) from a --menu widget result.
The dialog --menu widget returns the `tag' from the tag/item pair of choices
for a menu list. Because the menu list is often local to the function that
is displaying it, the ability to dereference this into the item is not
possible unless you use a global. This changes things so the function (upon
successful return of dialog) dereferences the tag into the item and stores
it for later retrieval using these functions.
NOTE: Tags are dereferenced into items using f_dialog_menutag2item().
